Celebrating Disability at The Met

Celebrating Disability at The Met

To celebrate Disability Pride Month, we're pleased to present a few highlights from our ongoing social media project #MetAccess. This monthly feature, which debuted in July 2020 in honor of the thirtieth anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act, welcomes Disabled and Deaf artists to reflect on a specific work from The Met collection that sparks their curiosity or inspires them.

Chroma AR Experience

The Chroma AR experience allows smartphone users to virtually recreate an ancient Greek sculpture of a sphinx in full color, in their own space, comparing the vivid reconstruction and as it looks today. Chroma AR was created in association with the exhibition Chroma: Ancient Sculpture in Color, on view at The Met starting July 5, 2022. Start the AR experience →
